About this book

Measured knocks bring a lodge to order before its officers exchange questions about their places and duties. William Morgan's The Mysteries of Free Masonry sets out these proceedings in dialogue and practical directions, from guarding the door to recording business and handling funds. The opening also describes prayers, signs, the reading of minutes, and the ballot through which members consider a candidate for admission.

A later ceremony sends candidates into a vault to recover objects presented as ancient jewels and the ark of the covenant. Alongside the formal words and biblical references, the account describes the materials used to represent sacred objects, including simple wooden boxes and everyday food. Those details make the volume useful for readers studying fraternal ceremonies: it records both the prescribed actions and the ordinary objects used to carry them out.
